Room 101.

A couple of my mates got jobs at the pit when we left school, both had jobs on the surface so not actually at the face. According to them every day was practically a day off with NCB standing for something completely different

About 1972/3 I was on dole for a spell, I wasn't that bothered at the time as I was going through a bad period so not able to hold a job down, then the job centre told me to go to a company called Stephensons Soaps (for the wool industry) anyway I went got the job Clocked on and walked out on my first day, went back in at 4pm and clocked off, I did this for a week or so and no one said a word so I got three of my mates in on it and we would come in nicely dressed with clipboards and just wander around asking people what they were doing, even management were asked questions, not a clue who we were. We'd still go out for most of the day you can only mess about like that for so long before it gets boring.

One of the lads took a shine to a girl there and got moved to her department, married her and has four kids, I still see him now and then.

Put irrelavant threads into room 101

When we played the South Yorkshire miners clubs, they used to put " Turns ", on at Monday lunchtime, in the late 60s & early 70s.
There was no way we could drive from Leeds to Pontefract, do a 30 minute set and return to work, in our lunch hours.

Room 101: coal..

Hot cross buns...

[Pudsey Bear]

We get some almost every time we go shopping if they're fresh, lovely out of the toaster with lashings of butter.

 

[Pauljenny]

Best to buy em when they're reduced and going out of date, they are cheaper and toast up better too. Same with toasted bread and scones, much better when stale.
In fact toasted fresh bread should go in room 101

The two scummy low lives that visited my van in the early hours last night with a view to driving it away, they and all of their type should definitely go into room 101 but only after Rob's spade treatment.
